Luke C ( @BallisticAviation) sits down with Jim from Extar Firearms (also of @jetskijim007 where he reviews jet skis) at GunCon 2026 to check out the EP9 MDB and EP45 MDB (Modern Delayed Blowback), the latest versions of Extar’s budget-friendly large-format pistols. These guns have earned a reputation as some of the most affordable PDW options on the market, and now Jim walks Luke through the biggest change yet: a switch to roller-delayed blowback. The EP9 MDB comes in at 3.75 lbs and is chambered in 9×19, while the EP45 MDB weighs 4.35 lbs and runs .45 ACP. Both keep the Glock magazine compatibility, AR-style controls, M-LOK handguards, and threaded barrels that made the originals popular, all while staying true to Extar’s direct-to-consumer pricing.
